The best ice cream in Liguria

Gelateria Gepi is no doubt the best ice cream store of Santa Margherita Ligure and Portofino.

There are three Gelataria Gepi “artisan” ice cream shops nearby, the first is located in the center, the second in the marina of Santa Marguerita Ligure, and there is a third in Portofino well hidden from the view of the tourists, behind the Hotel Belmond Splendido Mare.

Using this map you can grab an ice cream in Santa Margherita for dessert while you are preparing yourself for a 1h walk to Portofino. It is a long journey more or less 4 to 5 km (2,48 to 3,10 mil) but is worth it, believe in us.

Why do we like it

Ice cream is a sensitive subject for us because we just love it, we are addicts and this makes us experts in the field. I think we eat like one a day during this trip, and we are always comparing, and try to find the best one.

So, during this 17 days in Italy we think Gelateria Gepie as the best ice creams in Italy, remember this is a personal opinion and is always always debatable.

It is difficult to choose a favorite flavor, the best way to know is to go there and taste it! But we are giving you our opinion…

Favorite flavors

All the flavors are quite amazing but the strawberry ice cream is very good, the “crema” is the real Italian cream (you can see also known by vanilla), the dark chocolate and the pistachio are also excellent.

We prefer simple flavors, but there are also a wide variety of options for more elaborated ice creams, we think it is best to try several.

Additional Tips

Eating ice cream is an activity that we can do regardless of the time, but we think you can enjoy better after lunch, after dinner as a dessert and also during the afternoon.

The important is to enjoy the moment.
